Program Overview

The Churdhar Winter Trek is one of Himachal Pradesh’s most thrilling snow treks, offering breathtaking 360° panoramic views of the snow-clad Himalayan peaks including Kinnaur, Kedarnath, and Badrinath ranges. The trek leads you to Churdhar Peak (also known as Churi Chandni Dhar – “Mountain in the Silver Bangle”), the highest peak in the outer Himalayas of Sirmaur.

In winter, the trail transforms into a white wonderland — dense forests of pine and deodar blanketed with snow, frozen streams, and untouched meadows. Perfect for adventure seekers, nature lovers, and beginners wanting to learn basic snow trekking and camping skills.

Why You Should Do The Churdhar Winter Trek?

  • Experience deep snow trails and 360° Himalayan views.

  • Perfect for learning snow trekking, camping skills, and mountain safety basics.

  • Ideal for those preparing for higher altitude treks like Kedarkantha or Brahmatal.
